Recursion is Life

To mathmetician's and specifically programmers: Has anyone here struggled with recursion? I have always thought it was an elusive concept. Sure I "GET IT".

I have read enough of the common analogies and done 50 something Leetcode, Hacker Rank problems. I understand it but never clicked till recently.

Recursion is life, sir. Just like you and a poor susceptible woman will have a baby (not you, beta sissy-boi)

Then that baby will grow up to become just a slightly different, but very close, 'iteration' on your DNA.
